3-D printing with Cellulose

Posted on Updated on

According to John Hart and Sebastian Pattinson, a former postdoc in mechanical engineering who is now a lecturer at the University of Cambridge in the U.K., “demonstrated a technique using the world’s most abundant natural polymer-cellulose. at MIT,” says early education on 3-D printing is the key to helping the technology expand as an industry. They are very much enjoyed creating and teaching the course and they are proud of what the students did, and what it means about the future potential of additive manufacturing.
Cellulose offers many advantages over current plastics-based feedstocks: It’s inexpensive, renewable, biodegradable, mechanically robust, and chemically versatile. In addition, it’s widely used in pharmaceuticals, packaging, clothing, and a variety of other products, many of which could be customized using 3-D printing”.

3D Print-Fashion & Cosmetics(3D Printed lipstick applicator)

Posted on Updated on

3D Print-Fashion & Cosmetics -3D Printed lipstick applicator for perfect makeup. Researchers in the U.K. have developed a 3D-printed makeup applicator, which means perfect lipstick every time. It is fun to see how we can use 3D Printers differently. We can always use our imagination to create anything valuable to satisfy our inner scientists.

3D Printing technology has expanded its applications beyond the traditional manufacturing and engineering industries. One of the exciting areas is where 3D printing is making a mark in fashion and cosmetics. 3D Printing creates unique, complex, and intricate designs that are difficult to achieve using traditional manufacturing methods. 3D-Printed lipstick applicators are one example of how 3D printing is used in the cosmetic industry. These applicators are made from durable and non-toxic materials, such as food-grade silicone, and are designed to fit the shape of the lips. They offer precise and consistent applications, making it easier for users to achieve a professional look.

In addition to 3D Printed lipstick applicators, 3D printing creates custom makeup brushes, eyeglasses frames, jewelry, and even entire clothing lines. The possibilities are endless with 3D printing, and designers are only beginning to scratch the surface of what can be achieved with this technology. As technology continues to evolve and become more accessible, we can expect to see even more exciting and innovative uses for 3D printing in the fashion and cosmetics industries.
